Not able to print to locl printer, spool request status is in wait

[Former Member]

Hi All,

When user print to locl printer, the spool request is created and we get a error message saying "connection closed after (protocol) error (RC=1)". And we found the status of spool request is in wait state and if double clicked on it, it is showing "Internal error printing".

Below is the log of Spool work process for your reference

Found unqueued job 21701/1 (LOCL)

• ERROR => Printer LOCL: Lookup failed ?!?!? -> Status DELAY http://rspopcc. 0813

Just to update you user is able to print all other documents except the documents from SAP application. And user is connecting to SAP application server through Citrix.

We are on HP-UX, Oracle database and SAP R/3 3.1i version.

Thanks in advance.

Chandrika

Hello,

I read through your post and I see that user is connecting to SAP through Citrix.

There is nothing wrong in SAP side as per my thinking.

You should contact your helpdesk/infrastructure and have them to install Thin print client for Citrix in client PC and configure it.

Once you configure thin print client try to print through SAP it should work.

Let me know if still not working I can help you.

Hi Chandrika Bondu

1. I thing you are access the Sapgui thru citrix in this case u have to add the printer in the citrix server

2. Otherwise u can install the Sapgui in any one of the local pc and the try for the local printouts. Since u r tell the all other document are getting printing..

Hi Sundaresh,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes it is a network printer. User is printing to his default printer(LOCL, with host printer __DEFAULT) and we are using device type SAPWIN and access method F(printing on front end computer).

Hi Chandrika,

Check whether SAPLPD is running and see whether there is any log in the saplpd log file.

Hi Sanjay,

Thanks for your reply.

We have defined just 30 printers for single spool server and I dont think this problem is due to insufficient free slots.
